There’s an App for that!

If you have a smartphone and love apps, here are some great healthy living apps we recommend you try out:   

Fooducate

If you are confused by ingredient lists, nutrition labels, health claims and misleading food labels, this app is great a tool to understand what is really in your food. 

Use your smartphone’s camera to scan the products bar code and see the product’s overall grade and highlights (good and bad). 

Locavore

This app gives you information on in-season fruits and vegetables and will find local, in-season farmers markets based on your GPS location. We found information for most markets such as their hours, link to website, and contact information.
